Cure Ring

By: Liv

"Thanks, kid!" Sabin waved to the vendor and jogged over to Celes who studying the new relic she bought. "Cool! A Cure Ring!"

"Yeah…" Celes moved it in different angles letting the sun (wherever it is) show its still existing light on it.

"Wear it!"

Celes shook her head with a smile.

Sabin was confused. "What? Then why did you buy it for?"

"When I meet him…" Celes started. "When I meet him, I'm gonna give this thing to him…"

"Him?"

"He promised me he'd watch out for me." Celes continued. "And with this ring…it'll keep my hope up that he'll keep his promise…"

"Who he?" Sabin found no answer from Celes. So, he knew he had to guess. "Ummm…Edgar?"

Celes shook his head.

"Setzer?"

Celes giggled. "Though he mistakened me from someone else, no…it's not him."

Sabin thought of the other man to which Celes is close to. "…Locke…"

Celes nodded. "When we meet again…I'll give this to him."

"But…" Sabin paused before he could even go on. But he knew he had to ask. "But…are you sure Locke is…alive?"

Celes nodded, still studying the ring. "His bandana…"

"Bandana?" Sabin saw Celes pull out a familiar cloth from her pocket. "Th, that's Locke's!"

"When I jumped off the cliff, a bird came to me and healed me. It had around this bandana…and I knew Locke is still alive…" Celes inserted the bandana into the Cure Ring and folded it neatly before she kept it.

Sabin felt Celes' determination. And no matter what, he's gonna help Celes look for Locke.

In another sense, maybe he doesn't have a choice…he sure is glad he doesn't!

I might create part 2 of this thing…after I find Gerad and everyone else. ^^;; Locke most especially! I haven't finished FF6 yet, yes…just FF7.
